Idle PRs

Days since the last activity on an open PR, once it passes a threshold you set. The PRs everyone forgot stand out in the list.

When a PR counts as idle

  • It is open, and nothing happened on it for 7 days or more. Any update counts as activity: a comment, a push, a review, a label.
  • Draft PRs are left alone unless you ask for them.
  • The count is fetched again on every visit, so activity resets it right away.

Settings

Threshold7 days by default.
DraftsOff by default: draft PRs are never flagged.
Badge placementRight column (default) or the grey line under the title. Shared by all PR list badges.
